Missing a round

After a long hiatus I am back to this blog. Football season tends to do this to me. Anyways:

In my commishioning (that is my word) of this past saturdays fantasy football draft, I missed a round. This is a keeper league and we were only drafting for 9 rounds since we had kept 7 from last season. Well instead of putting the team name stickers on the draft board in the boxes provided, I put them a line lower in the line provided for round 1. So when as we went along with our draft and we got to line 9, I began to think this is the last round. I think a few people were a bit confused and tried to point this out. I'm not too sure. If they tried, it wasn't all that convincing that I had screwed up so we just finished after "round 9".

Well on there I was on sunday morning, looking at the draft board and entering our picks into the manual draft entry tool on CBSSportsline. When I get to "round 9" on the board, I notice on the website that I am only in round 8. ?!? What happened here?!?! That is when I notice my mistake. Oh, shit!!! We still have a round to go. Well that's not gonna happen. So I do two things:

1. I edit the waiver wire to now reflect a who "would" have drafted next so we have a fair shot at our guy for the final roster spot. Which will be a bigger mess since CBSSportsline won't allow me to set the waiver wire to run more than once before the start of the season.

2. I send a message to all the owners telling them this happened because they didn't point out my mistake. I'm only one man...with 9 others owners present.

I didn't think it was that hugh of a deal anyway other than 2 teams not currently having kickers because they planned to draft them in the last round.
